I have great news for the project. I have contacted an expert of Distributed Hash Tables and got his support to implement a Chord like protocol on CLDC and hopefully soon the btp2p will become a real p2p platform.

I was wondering how bt can be used in the future and many ideas came to my mind and I feel the need sharing those thoughts.

First of all there is need to support multiple layers. The basic layered protocol which is for detecting devices and provide connectivity will probably stay intact. This protocol will support the raise of any other layered protocol so it will always be the core of btp2p. This is a prerequisite to the distributed hashing lookups.

Another direction which is purposed is to implement a peer which will run on a pc. This will enable a backbone network of any protocol (eg http) which will free btp2p over IP.

Currently, I am investigating Bluetooth languages & APIs for desktop applications.
